Allergy Testing Services for Braintree Residents

Many allergies mimic other health conditions, and testing helps get a proper diagnosis. Some allergy testing services for Braintree residents include:

• Patch testing diagnoses contact dermatitis or skin eczema. The doctor applies patches of allergens onto the skin and removes them after 48 hours. Then, monitoring continues 72-96 hours later.
• Skin prick testing injects small amounts of natural allergens. This non-invasive allergy testing delivers same-day results. If a mark appears looking like a mosquito bite, you test positive for an allergen.
• Blood testing results take about a week. Our doctor for allergies will draw blood.
• Seasonal allergy testing examples include pollen, grasses, trees, and weeds.
• Environmental allergy testing examines indoor and outdoor irritants. Some allergens include smoke, pet dander, dust, mold, bees, and insects.
• Food allergy testing can rule out a medical condition through a blood or skin test.
• Drug allergy tests diagnose reactions to medications. Common drug allergies include antibiotics, aspirin, penicillin, and anti-convulsants. Our immunologist also tests for monoclonal antibodies and chemotherapy allergies.

Many children and adults suffer from asthma, a common and chronic illness. This breathing condition interferes with daily life, impacting sleep and physical activity. Asthma has no cure, but medication and avoidance deliver effective relief. Symptoms include coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness. Asthma can develop from allergens, respiratory infections, and even cold Massachusetts air. Triggers like smoke, dust, and other irritants can cause asthma attacks. Our immunologist can help manage your condition so you can live without limitations. We use a breathing test or spirometry on patients six years and older. For younger children, we diagnose asthma based on symptoms and a physical exam. Effective management includes medication and avoiding asthmatic triggers.
